Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to an integrated circuit (IC) package and, more particularly, to an improved chip stacked structure of stacked chip size / scale package (stacked CSP).As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in a chip stacked structure of stacked chip size / scale package (stacked CSP, or called multi-chip package, MCP), a lower chip 12 and an upper chip 14 are disposed on a substrate 10. Each interface is bonded together with adhesives 16 and 18. Gold wires 20 are used to connect bonding pads 22 and 24 on the upper and lower chips 14 and 12 to contacts 26 on the substrate 10. A plurality of solder balls 28 are provided below the substrate 10.In the prior art, the size of the lower chip is larger than that of the upper chip so as to limit the layout of the substrate. Even the size of the upper chip is larger than that of the lower chip, as shown in FIG. 3, in order to let the wire path be the shortest, the bonding pads of the upper and lower chips 14 and 12 are arranged in the same dire...
